Installation Process – Planks
Gluing Procedures: The following gluing procedures are recommended to
install Wilsonart Tap-N-Lock
Flooring in wet areas, extreme climate conditions, and/or in lieu of
acclimation.
When Wilsonart BlueFusion Adhesive is used in a wet area, extreme climate
condition, and/or in lieu
of acclimation, the entire floor must be glued or the area must be separated
by a T-Expansion molding.
A T-Expansion molding must be used between glued and non-glued areas of
flooring.
Wilsonart BlueFusion Adhesive is required when installing Wilsonart Flooring
in areas with heavy objects
such as pool tables, 100 gallon aquariums, pianos, etc.
Wilsonart BlueFusion Adhesive is
required when
exceeding 26' in the width direction or exceeding 40' in the length
direction.
Consult your local distributor for recommendations concerning the use of
Wilsonart BlueFusion Adhesive
in your area. Regional conditions may affect the recommended application of
the BlueFusion Adhesive.
Extreme climate conditions would be
defined as areas that fall outside the Relative Humidity parameters
of 35% RH to 65% RH for sustained (2 weeks or longer) periods of time.
If you are installing Wilsonart Tap-N-Lock Flooring within the parameters
mentioned above, Wilsonart
BlueFusion Adhesive should be applied to both groove sides of the Tap-N-Lock
profile (C). Do not fill the
groove completely with adhesive. Instead apply a 3/32" continuous bead of
adhesive to the bottom of the
groove profiles. When the adhesive is properly applied, no clean up is
necessary.
In all installations, Wilsonart BlueFusion Adhesive is required to seal the
edges of material that have been
cut. Paint/butter the edges of all cut material with BlueFusion Adhesive. |
